So, this has been way more complicated than expected. The NPTQ165 isn’t necessary an exact fit due to the base of the pump (see attached picture.) how do I remove that base that is preventing the new motor from fitting in properly? Secondly, the maxflo go kit that I purchased… the ceramic seal...

So I have the maxflo go kit… but the ceramic sealer is a little bit larger than the old one. Therefore it doesn’t seem quite the same fit as before. Is that ok/normal? The old seal inserted into the hole. The new seal will only rest on top…

Thank you! Can you please help direct me with the GO kit you referenced? I didn’t see that anywhere when I was looking at the Neptune model yiu mentioned. Is replacing the motor fairly easy and straightforward? Thanks again

Our 10 year old Hayward SP2300VSP completely died today :cry: Looking for recommendations on replacement as that model is discontinued. 27,000 gallon inground saltwater. Attached a pic of current setup. Thanks in advance for your help!

Interesting... I’ll give that a try!! Thank you

Looking for help finding this product. Measures 2.5” across Our pool was installed 5 years ago. They put these inserts in for future use for umbrella or volleyball/basketball nets. We’ve never been able to get the caps off. I’m guessing they didn’t take the caps off when they poured the...

Our inground pool is 3 years old. We had our builder put these sleeves on for a future basketball hoop. I'm now trying to remove the covers and have no clue how to do it. I put a screw driver in hoping it would just pop out, but it's cracking. Please see attached pic for a better idea what I'm...

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia Interesting thought. It was required and a permit was pulled.

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia I spoke with the concrete guy this morning. He told me that he is confident the concrete will be fine. He told me he doesn't go cheap in his concrete and that he uses the best mix possible... And a wire and fiber mesh to help. He told...

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia By dirt, I'm assuming you mean the stone that was used to backfill? I have no idea where it is. Honestly. When we lost all of that water there was no evidence of a leak anywhere around the pool. The only guess is that it went...

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia It was back filled somewhere around May 10-14... I have to check my files and pictures further in the morning to get an exact date. The concrete was poured May 30... So it was 2 to 3 weeks between backfill and the pour.

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia Should I seek a 3rd party concrete guy or 3rd party pool builder? Thanks

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia #6 stone all the way around. Honestly... It was done while I was at work, so no clue if it was compacted properly or not. Concrete was poured on May 30. The leak started July 14. The way our yard slopes in our subdivision, a good...

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia My initial thought was to pull it up and have them do the decking again. One thing to keep in mind is that I had a total of 6 inches from our 27000 gallon pool empty out within a 36 hour timeframe. Which is why the stone was washed...

Great. Thank you!!

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia Also... Bullnose forms were used for the concrete coping around the pool. They secured the forms, poured the concrete and removed the forms.

Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia I agree with you guys. I am still extremely polite and the conversations are cordial. Attorney would be last step. As I said earlier, he has stepped up and owned the mistake. They just fixed the returns... His plan is to tunnel a...

In addition to my leaking returns and other problems (see other post)... I did have another questions regarding our liner. I'm far from an expert.. but it looks to me like the liner sits a little lower than it is supposed to. I don't think that the light blue line along the top should be...

Hi everyone, Our 27,000 gallon inground "l-shaped" vinyl liner pool was started by our pool builder in mid-April. We are now heading into August and we still are not done. To say this process has been frustrating is an understatement. We were almost done a couple of weeks ago... we were...

Re: Heavy rain + lots of dirt and mud = Brown Pool! Please h It was city water.

Re: Heavy rain + lots of dirt and mud = Brown Pool! Please h lol. The filter has been cleaned multiple times over the last 10 days. I cleaned again yesterday and the cartridges weren't very bad at all

Re: Heavy rain + lots of dirt and mud = Brown Pool! Please h As a data point... my FC was 13 on 7/4 (in case that is useful information)

Re: Heavy rain + lots of dirt and mud = Brown Pool! Please h Hey everyone.. I wanted to bump this back up to the top. It's been about a week and half since the mudslide :) It has improved quite a bit, but we still aren't back to crystal clear yet. It's been vacuumed twice per day since it...

Re: Heavy rain + lots of dirt and mud = Brown Pool! Please h It was the wind. With gusts up to 65 mph out of the north that blew the mud and muck up above the concrete deck and into the pool. It was a very strange storm. Everything is graded well away from the deck. Once I get the sod or...

So we recently wrapped up the installation of a 27,000 gallon inground, vinyl liner SWG pool w/ cartridge filter. We are in Northwest Ohio. I'm waiting on my sprinkler guy to come back in and re-route the system before I can hydroseed or sod. So until then, I'm left with dirt all around...
